I did not submit anything to #EMNLP2026, which is probably part of why I missed this when it was first posted in May, but I want to say now that I am utterly appalled that @aclmeeting.bsky.social & @emnlpmeeting.bsky.social are engaging in this nonsense. 2026.emnlp.org/ai-reviewing... A thread 🧵>>

Just to be clear there is no such thing as the "Fountain Pen Institute", the AI that generates these fake statistics is inordinately fond of the number 68%, and future google searches are going to lead to this bollocks instead of the vast wealth of knowledge from actual hobbyists. Get bent.
